At just over $13 from Amazon this book is  a steal and one you will be able to refer to day after day for the rest of your life. With clear diagrams and concise explanations it will help you address issues you may have. It will definitely help you keep small pains from becoming big problems and slowing down your progress.

It's $13...GET IT!!! Trust me on this one!!!




The Knobble II by the Pressure Positive Company, Sapphire Blue

The knobble is less than $8 and will save your fingers when you do find that tender trigger point.










Relax Body (TM) Wooden Foot Roller and Porcupine Massage Ball, Foot Massager Combo for reflexology, Foot Pain/Sore Feet Relief, plantar fasciitis, (Massage Ball for Neck/Back Pain Relief)

These two items are just $11.95 and will help prevent plantar fasciitis. If you've ever had plantar fasciitis you know how painful it is and how much it limits your activity level. It's better to stop it before it happens than suffer with trying to rehab it after.






RumbleRoller, Deep Tissue Massage Rollers, Four Models

Original Density 12 x 5 is only $44.95

I LOVE my Rumbleroller. If you're totally new to rolling you can get a basic foam roller. But if you have some experience you'll want the Rumbleroller. Its ability to knead the muscle is what makes it work so well.
NOTE: Get the BLUE (Original Density) to start!! The black EXTRA FIRM one should only be used by very experienced rollers who need serious kneading or if you're a masochist.






Lacrosse Ball (Orange)

Yes, a lacrosse ball ($3.55). It's firm but made of rubber so has a little give to it. I use one for forearm, chest and calve work. Then I put 4 in a sock and use with my back against a wall. It allows for using a variety of pressure. If you're totally new to self massage you can start with tennis balls. I just find tennis balls are a bit too soft for me.




Above are the 5 items I use daily to remain injury free at 45 years old. The total cost is way under $100. How much is 1-hour of physical therapy or deep tissue massage? These items will last you a lifetime and can be shared with friends and family!!

Seriously just buy them. You won't regret it!!

**I have no problem at all with physical therapy and deep tissue massage. In fact I think they're great. Often they are a necessity even for people who use the above items regularly. I don't mean to imply the above items will make you bulletproof but they can help limit the number of times you need to seek professional care.

A couple additional self treatment items:






The Stick Marathon Stick

















Thera Cane Massager
